Supplement brands of Australia
Australian natural health supplements and products are a sought after commodity around the world and are often easily accessible in Hong Kong. All supplements, or complementary medicines, as they are referred to in Australia, must be registered with the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) where they are grouped into one of two categories based on risk by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and assessed for quality, consistency, and efficiency. Complementary medicines in Australia are regulated within the same legal framework as pharmaceutical drugs. This setup, procedure, and standard enforces quality and safety that ensures consumers that they’re getting the best possible supplement for their health, which is what makes some of the Australian branded natural health products the most popular on the market.
Swisse
On a mission to inspire health and happiness, Swisse originated from a small rural area in Melbourne. Swisse owner, Kevin Ring, travelled the world throughout the 1960s learning about natural health and its latest developments. In 1991 he created a multi-vitamin for women that became the Swisse flagship product which saw immense success. Swisse has now expanded to have over 200+ supplements that have been carefully developed. Swisse has since become one of the biggest selling brands of natural health products in Australia.
BLACKMORES

Blackmore prides itself on quality, for both humans and pets, by working with some of the world’s leading raw suppliers that meet Blackmore’s strict ingredient policy and quality standards.
